Congratulations Brandon & Christina ...

Yesterday was  Brandon and Christina's beautiful wedding. It was at a Greek Orthodox church, and the ceremony was so amazing. The church has wonderful traditions and was beautiful from all the details. She looked beautiful and he looked very dashing.

We wish you both the most happiest marriage and a forever of love.

& Baby Makes 3 ...

After more than two years of TTC we are officially adding to our family !

For a week I just didn't feel like myself. Finally I woke up last Wednesday morning and took a pregnancy test. I paced back and forth waiting, then almost cried when I finally saw the positive. I couldn't believe it, we finally were expecting. Being 4:30 AM, I didn't want to wake up Justin. So I went to work bursting with my news. I had to tell my girlfriend right when I walked through the doors and we brainstormed  on how to tell  Justin the good news.

We came up with a plan, We have Justin's gym right next to our master bedroom and plan on making that our nursery. I called Justin's best friend Pat and my sister to come over and help me change the room. They came over once I got home from work and moved all the gym equipment into the office or spare room. My parents have been buying baby stuff since we originally started trying. We aleady had a crib and a rocking chair, so we moved them into the nursery. I had a giant teddy bear that Justin got me for our 2nd (cotton) anniversary. He fits perfectly in the corner.

Before & After



Hoppy Easter ...

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday. We had a nice dinner with the family and we all made it through lent. My sister and I gave up soda and we both had our first one together. My parents and aunts both gave up ice cream, and so we had ice cream cake for dessert. It was a fun laid back evening.

Party Rock ...

We went to one of the best themed party's ever the other night. Josh's party rock birthday party. We roamed the mall looking for the best outfits.

Their backyard was beautifully decorated. They even had a bartender, dj, and a photo booth with accessories and fun props. They had great food and a yummy dessert bar. It was defiantly a blast.

Christina's Bridal Shower ...

Saturday was Christina's bridal shower. It was a beautiful day to shower her with gifts. Her friend who hosted did a beautiful job and we all had a really good time. Our team won the toilet paper wedding dress. We out did ourselves with a fabulous veil, bouquet, and even tp jewelery. I may need to re-think my career options. Wedding dress designing came so naturally.

Pinky's Adventure ...

I work at 6 am Monday thru Friday and am by myself in the office for the first two hours. I don't get many calls, so I have a lot of free time on my hands and that's how the adventures of Pinky started.

He's a mischievous monster ...





I finally had to place him in time out ...



He apologized to the other puff ball heads, and they all became bestest of friends ...



THE END - TIL NEXT TIME

Nascar ...

My good girlfriends cousin races in NASCAR and this year her family had two extra tickets. She was nice enough to ask if we wanted to join them. Her cousin is Matt Kenseth and he drives Best Buy's car number 17. This race he was still sponsored by Best Buy, but has a special "Zest" car. He wasn't hard to miss at all in his aqua blue race car. He won the Daytona 500 a few weeks prior so we were really excited to see him race here in Las Vegas.




We found out a few days prior that our other friends Brandon and Christina were also going to the race, so we rode together and roamed the grounds before finding our seats with my friend and her family.




Matt started out the race at positin 11 (he had a really goo trial) and within 45 minutes he passed his tenth car to take the number one spot. Unfortunatly he only stayed there for about 20/30 laps until the pace car and yellow flag came out. Almost every car pitted, but a few and he dropped down to 3rd. It was really neat since we got to listen in on the radio conversations of Matt and his crew as the whole race went on.





Finally the last 10 laps came and he was in a three way tie for second and he went too high and hit the wall. nothing too bad, but just enought to fall way behind. We had a blast though. It was our first Nascar race and hopefully we can make it to next years.

Bret's In The Army Now ...

Our good friend Bret has both worked me and Justin in the past three years. He's such a good guy, someone you can always count on. So when we found out that he was going to be leaving valet and joing the Army as a MP, we had gto do somethign special for him. My sister and I started planning a surprise going away party. We invited pool, spa, and valet people to toast him the best.



He loaded up on gifts, some practical and some not so practical. camo underwear, stationary, military coin, watch, toiletries, ect ..





And to ties the night down was arm wrestling twin no.1 vs twin no.2
